I had a great weekend!
And I hope the few who reads this, also had one!
I had some old pals over for dinner friday night, which led to a 14 hour straight playthrough! Of diablo 2 ofc! :jig:
By saturday evening, we had 4 characters at lvl 88-89!
I wanted to share this with you, because of several things.
1. I love ladder reset practice!! When I get bored of the ladder after ~3months, I tend to Singleplayer or this!
2. I have many nice ways to effeciantly start the ladder, when it comes to teams.
3. This is a new, for me, way to go!
Ill make this short, and want all your opinions! Just spill them! Always room for improvement!
First char.
Necromancer with summons. This is the base structure early on:
6p raise skeleton. (= 4 skeletons)
10p skel mastery.
5p Clay Golem. (50+ % slow)
Sum Res.
Decrep.
- All by lvl 24.
The supporting characters were all Paladins this time. (Boring, but it worked so well)
Paladin 1, focused on a hammerdin build. With maxed ConcAura by lvl 37.
Uses Might lvl 1 til lvl17.
Paladin 2, focused on a Zealer build. With lvl 15 Defiance aura by lvl20.
And Fanaticism by lvl 30+
Zeal lvl 4, and Holy Shield lvl 5 was focus early on. To make him a stronger kind of tank.
Less vita, but higher str and dex for heavier gear and higher block.
Paladin 3, main support character.
Maxed prayer at lvl 20.
From lvl 12, uses cleansing. (to heal 100% of the time, and no manacosts)
From lvl 24, uses Meditation ofc. And maxes it asap.
Any other spare points into Holy shield.
Summary.
The 4 skeletons I had was tanks, and did a little more dmg early on.
We played through the game, but its completing normal as fast as possible that was the theme.
Andariel was easy, just overpowering her.
Duriel was harder, we had lvl 18-19 the first time. So we leveled to 21-22 and killed him with ease.
The extra defense from gear and levels, made a huge difference.
Mephisto. No words needed. 100+ % slow with Golem and decrep.
Diablo. Easy aswell.
Baal runs werent necessary. So we continued to NM immediatly.
Other than Duriel, we had no deaths until early Hell. And the timing was 10 hours, 35 minutes. With maybe 2-3 rerunning of areas. For xp.
EDIT: Im so freaking tired right now. So this could probably be cleaned up.. Sorry about that!
